Benchmarking Operating System Scalability Tuning 
Percona
MAY 1, 2023
Out of the box, the default PostgreSQL configuration is not tuned for any particular workload. It is primarily the responsibility of the database administrator or developer to tune PostgreSQL according to their system’s workload. What is PostgreSQL performance tuning? Why is PostgreSQL performance tuning important?

Compare ease of use across compatibility, extensions, tuning, operating systems, languages and support providers. PostgreSQL is an open source object-relational database system with over 30 years of active development. Let’s take a look at core functionality of these two relational database management systems.

Operating system Linux is the most common operating system for high-performance MySQL servers. Benchmark before you decide. Some cloud providers also offer specialized instances for database workloads, which may provide additional features and optimizations for performance and scalability. I hope this helps!

GHz 4th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (code-named Sapphire Rapids) Up to 20% higher compute performance than z1d instances Up to 50 Gbps of networking speed Up to 40 Gbps of bandwidth to the Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) We can also verify these capabilities by running some simple benchmarks on the different subsystems.

Some opinions claim that “Benchmarks are meaningless”, “benchmarks are irrelevant” or “benchmarks are nothing like your real applications” However for others “Benchmarks matter,” as they “account for the processing architecture and speed, memory, storage subsystems and the database engine.”

HammerDB is a load testing and benchmarking application for relational databases. On high-performance multi-core systems all the supported databases can return performance in the many millions of transactions per minute. Basic Benchmarking Concepts. To benchmark a database we introduce the concept of a Virtual User.

I became the Sun UK local specialist in performance and hardware, and as Sun transitioned from a desktop workstation company to sell high end multiprocessor servers I was helping customers find and fix scalability problems. We had specializations in hardware, operating systems, databases, graphics, etc.
